<h2>Release 1.0 Overview</h2>

<p>
This is the first release of Atlas.  The majority of the work for this release was oriented around refactoring of the code base to remove specific references to the Veterans' Health Affairs namespace.  The following objectives were accomplished for this release:

	<ul>
		<li>Re-factored the full code base to the org.tigris.atlas namespace</li>
		<li>Further componentization of the code base.  A deliberate effort was made to split up the code base along the lines of dependencies on third party implementations of the key architectural mechanisms.  For example, atlas-hibernate is the only component with dependencies on Hibernate and so on.  The advantage of this approach is that consumers of Atlas can plug in alternate architectural mechanism implementations as appropriate for their environment.</li>
		<li>Separation of concerns for the framework (atlas-java, atlas-hibernate, etc.) and MDA-based code generators (atlas-java-mda, atlas-hibernate-mda).  No more model-related elements remain in the framework as they have all been moved out to the *-mda components</li>
		<li>Addition of the analysis and design models used as a basis for the atlas implementation</li>
	</ul>
